Collins Center for the Arts — Attraction in Orono

We attended a concert and as I read, there truly is no bad seat in the house. The accoustics are wonderful and we fully enjoyed our show. There is a museum on the second floor which normally closes at 4, but is open during concerts. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The only reason for the 4 star is for a slight lack of information. We arrived too early for our 7 show. We were let in and told about the cafe and the merchandise booths from the artists.

Literally every single time I have went, I get one of these drunkards behind me. If this wasn’t something that happened every single time, I’d totally come back, but I think I’ve seen my last show there and will not be purchasing any...
